Amazon Fresh Decaf Colombia Whole Bean Coffee, Medium Roast, 12 Ounce (Pack of 3)

It tastes less dark than it looks which is a benefit for me as I am trying to find a lighter decaf roast. It plays well when used to make personal half caff mixes with things like Starbucks Sunsera and Veranda. I would say if anything it is very "inoffensive" in flavors? There's very little of anything beyond what I would call "coffee." There's no particular standout sweetness, nuttiness or anything to it. I am surprised by this given how visibly dark it is compared to another decaf roast I have.For the very, very competitive price at 12oz and how fresh the package seems (no roast date but "expiration" is June 2026, so this package might be only a few months old as of September 2025) I think I'd add this in as a tool to make half caff (or perhaps quarter caff or other mix rates) or otherwise if I just want to taste the most inoffensive coffee sometimes.Being whole bean rather than ground makes it even better. Decaf coffee degrades faster due to the way decaf processes require the beans to be "opened up" before they undergo decaf. Whole beans means there's a lot less surface area exposed to the beans and the highly competitive pricing for small packages means only ordering (and opening) them up when I'm running low on them so that'll reduce degradation more.Definitely more of a tool than standalone roast for my espressos.For roast darkness comparison in the photo is:Starbucks Sunsera - Amazon Fresh Decaf Colombia Medium - Blue Bottle Coffee Decaf

Being an elder person, my wife and I need to reduce caffeine intake, so we pair 1/2 full taste coffee with a decaf. Problem is most decaf coffee doesn't have much taste. As a chemist having done some flavor studies, I am sensitive to even subtle shifts in flavor expressions.This whole bean Arabica Columbia decaf coffee is wonderful. Upon opening the package, the light nutty aroma signaled me immediately that a step-up selection was now before me. Did a drip grind and paired it with Costco premium grind for that optimum flavor cup. Adding some organic half and half and one then has the height of delight.No need for flavored additives. It stands on its own needing nothing else. My search for a wonderful, good flavor coffee with reduced caffeine is now in my pantry and steel air-tight container for the ground portion.Now on to the beans. An image is provided to better understand their roast. Since this is a medium roast, the color of the beans varies somewhat lighter and some darker. Only one exploded bean was found and only one with a tan fleck in the cut. These are under roasted beans that puff like popcorn and deliver bitter taste (also known as Quakers).That is not the case here. The beans were dried then roasted under tight operational conditions. And the brewed cup was excellent even for a decaf. Chewing one of the beans revealed a faint but real nutty flavor, amazing.Since I review many bags of coffee for Amazon Vine, I see so many with moderate level of defects. Not so for this decaf whole bean. And so when buying for myself, this is top shelf for the decaffeinated portion of my brew. However, don't look for Organic labels. The only way to achieve this level of origin flavor preservation for such a tasty cup is solvent extraction of the caffeine. Supercritical CO2 Extraction is the top of the flavor preserving hierarchy, but cost is quite high. My best guess is Ethyl Acetate, or the Fermented Sugarcane Process. My palate confirms it.The only negative is there are gaps in time when this coffee is not available. Yet I wait to purchase more knowing their Amazons Quality Team is working with their sources to get the beans and the roast right. And this bag after waiting 3 months, presents with excellence. Amazon's Colombian decaf is hitting above the typical house-brand curve and it is highly recommended.5-Star Decaf Coffee Beans from Amazon - Quality Roast, Aroma and Brewed CupGregs Engineer Review - Evidence Not Hype

For a decaf, this one surprised me in a good way. The beans smell fresh, grind evenly, and brew into a smooth, medium‑bodied cup that’s easy to sip any time of day. It has that classic Colombian profile — mild sweetness, a little nuttiness, and a clean finish that doesn’t feel flat like some decafs do. My only complaint is the taste can come off slightly muted compared to regular coffee, but that’s pretty normal for decaf. Overall, it’s a solid, affordable option if you want a mellow cup without the caffeine crash.

I drank coffee like water for years- so I know my coffee. But I’ve been decaf for a few years and this is the only decaf coffee I’ll drink!! It tastes great! And for the price! Say less!!

This is my go-to decaf now. It's smooth and actually tastes like real coffee, not like watered down nothing.I grind it fresh every morning and brew it in my drip machine. Smells great, tastes great. No bitterness and none of that chemical taste some decafs have.For the price it's a steal. I've paid way more for decaf that wasn't nearly as good.Bag stays fresh if you keep it sealed. I go through it in about two weeks and it's still good at the end.Honestly didn't expect much from an Amazon brand but this is legit. Already on my third bag and just set up subscribe and save.

It is the worst decaf coffee out there. Flow speed is extremely fast showing its staleness. Undrinkable as is, the second star comes for capuccino as milk dominates the taste so it is okay the third star is for a cheap alternative.

I hate to say this, and obviously everyone might not agree, but I like the taste of this better than my decaf Starbucks pikes place whole beans that I bought the other day

I've been trying different types of coffee for quite some time, and have never been able to find a great tasting coffee and most are very expensive. So I have up and bought a cheaply priced coffee and gave Amazon's decaf a try, and wow was I surprised. It has that bold coffee flavor I'm looking for and it very smooth. I'm found my coffee and I'm sticking to it and saving money too.
